Scarborough is an exciting place to be. We are currently undergoing an exciting £47 million pound project to offer high quality modern facilities & designed to create the best environment to care for our patients.
The project will see the creation of a new urgent & emergency care unit which would see surgeons & the medical staff working together at the front door of the emergency unit. This means we can improve & streamline how patients are assessed, admitted & treated, which should reduce the time that people wait in the department, & ultimately improve patient safety.
The new urgent and emergency care facility is scheduled to open early 2024.Visithttps://lnkd.in/dK5pq39tto take the virtual tour.
